netfilter: nf_tables: remove redundant chain validation on register store
This validation predates the introduction of the state machine that determines when to enter slow path validation for error reporting. Currently, table validation is perform when: - new rule contains expressions that need validation. - new set element with jump/goto verdict. Validation on register store skips most checks with no basechains, still this walks the graph searching for loops and ensuring expressions are called from the right hook. Remove this.
